This Tumblr thread shines light on the business of modeling for art classes. While it sounds like the pay can be decent, it can also end up being a true test of willpower when it comes to putting up with the cold. Turns out that sitting in studios or garages without any clothes on can be a tad bit chilly.
Check out some more gold from Tumblr with these totally random Tumblr tidbits of pure golden proportions.
Craftsmanship and taste are two different things, and sometimes one gets the better of the other. Sure, you can make high quality shoes out of teeth, but you should also be asking yourself if anyone wants to look at them. It's very possible to make a thing that's impressive but also of highly questionable taste.
Sometimes teachers misjudge their students, like this teacher who underestimated their students during a social experiment. Other times, the powers that be can be mistaken and disrespectful, like this staff who made a student wait to report a fire. In this case, it was an art teacher who was soundly put in their place after handing down some harsh criticism. Art is subjective, anyway.
The world has its unfair share of entitled folks and their frustrating demands. Sometimes people make such jaw-droppingly laughable "offers" that it's probably best to run away. For another wild piece of entitlement, here's an entitled parent who demanded a public artist make a piece just for them.
Sometimes entitled people have a hard time understanding that other people's time is valuable, or that they like to be paid for their work. In this case it was an entitled mom who thought she could get a wall painted for free just because this person did the same thing for a closer person. For another one, here's an entitled mom who lost it over some free seashells.
Do you want a four thousand dollar coffee table that weighs hundreds of pounds? C'mon there's tons of dumb stuff being sold online. How about a custom made flower pot that looks like half of a baby? No? Why not? Sounds like you're weird. It's like everyone is the king of their own antiques roadshow when they're trying to sell bizarre stuff online.
Who in their absurd, entitled goofy mind thinks they can message a public hidden art account and tell them where to put it so they can get a good vacation photo? This parent not only refuses to pay for any art, but they also don't want to donate anything, and they get real rude about it. You can never guess how low entitled people will go with their frustrating demands. For another parent interaction, here's an entitled mom losing it over free seashells.
An ekans doesn't seem nearly as imposing when it looks like it could crawl out of a tailpipe. Many of us grew up with the global phenomenon of Pokémon searing its mark into our childhoods, and a lot of time has been lost on those games for good reason. This Tumblr Thread explains how the Pokémon probability system is madness. Also, here's a thread on why Mr. Mime is the creepiest Pokémon.
This fun Tumblr thread spotlights the fact that it actually can pay off to keep that mental warehouse stocked with random bits of knowledge. So learn all the random knowledge that you can! Check out some more gold from Tumblr with this thread that traces the history of how cats became domesticated.
It's pretty straightforward. The prompt asks you to fill in the blanks. Who knows what kind of media the original images could possibly be taken from? Guess it'll stay a complete mystery. Either way, it's a chance for people to be creative, not unlike this prompt that asked people to draw a duck.
They say "whatever you are, be the best" and that includes turning school textbooks into art. We've all seen the classic devil horns, mustache and missing teeth, but these folks really upped the ante. With a little creativity and with no one looking, some acts of vandalism can be strangely amazing.
Ah, yes, here we have a fine case of a choosing beggar so blinded by their own aggressive entitlement that they think insults will work. The fact that the dude doesn't realize he's being messed with, at a very obvious point in the conversation, really says this conversation was doomed from the start. All we can do with these choosing beggars is try to dish out the reality checks free of charge, when the opportunities present themselves.
If you're ready for more choosing beggar madness, check out the strangest choosing beggar case that the world's ever seen.
Dr Chelsea Nichols has some interesting knowledge on the prevalence of phallic weasel symbolism in Renaissance art. Art history can be a pretty dry topic, but naturally something like a sex weasels is bound to capture our interest. Here are some Tumblr gems about history and here's an interesting tale of the art world's most loathed elitist and his bean.
Ah, yes, another sweet case of the choosing beggar waving their entitlement around, and in this case, getting their comeuppance. It's nice when someone involved in a negotiation with a choosing beggar tacks on the responsibility of serving the choosing beggar up a nice reality check. It seems like this particular reality check still might've soared right over their heads. Oh well.
